    this is what I got complimented most on in November

Transcript

This is what I got complimented most on in November. Okay. I'm gonna start with my jewelry. I have been getting so many compliments on these two rings and these earrings. They're all Hernan Hernandez. This is Melissa Hernandez. She was actually nice enough to gift me these items. I'm obsessed with them. I've worn them every single day for the last two months, if not more. I was at the tier two vintage market the other day, and someone identified me from my earrings, which is wild. Highly suggest checking her out. They're amazing. It's a lot of, like, quirky, chunky. She makes both silver and gold. She does customized pieces. Amazing. K. Next, I have these Aperi mittens. I don't really believe in open finger gloves. Like, I feel like my hands are just gold. I don't know that they're doing anything for me. I've been getting so many compliments on these because I can just zip them open and put the flaps down with the magnets, use my phone throughout the day, not worry about it, and then I'll zip them back up and I'm still warm. So it's kinda like the best of both worlds. Next, I have this insane blush from Say Best. This is the Super Suede blush in greasy.
